I just installed Personal Oracle 7.3.2.2.0. in windows 95. When I
connect to it with SQLPlus 3.3.4.0.0 using system/manager, everything
works fine. When I tried to logon with system/manager_at_tcp-loopback,
it doesnot work at all. According to the attached document in the CD,
there includes messages like that:
"
5.2 - Connecting to the Local Database Using TCP/IP
When trying to make a connection to the local database through TCP/IP loopback connections, the connection may fail and the following error may be displayed:
ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination.
In order to make the connection, wait a few seconds and try again. The
connection should succeed the second time. The same sequence occurs if
you use the TCP/IP host name of your machine instead of TCP-loopback.
"
I tried more than 5 times, it just does not work at all.
My computer is a standalone NotePC with dialup network. I used the defaul connection string Tcp-loopback, Computer Ip Address has been set to 127.0.0.1 (I also tried ping 127.0.0.1, the result is OK).
I do not know how to get it to work? please help me out.
Also, I tried Net*8 tools, SqlPlus 8 does not work on either system/manager or system/manager_at_Tcp-loopback. Received on Wed Jan 27 1999 - 09:14:43 CST
